Compliment from Carrera GT

I was at In n Out last night and i noticed a Porsche Carrera GT parked outside In n Out, so i pull up accross from him in the parking lot. I go inside to get some food and then my friend wanted to go look at the GT. So we go outside and there are like 10 people gathered around. We walk over there and start looking at it, the owner of the Porsche comes over to me and says "I like your mazda", i was like "thanks" and he responded "it looks really good with those black wheels". So there my friends is the story of how i was complimented by a guy with a 450,000 dollar car and i he found me. I thought it was pretty cool! He then did a drive by in the GT...it was insane. And don't ask why he was at in n out at 12am because i don't know

Nice, was he a young guy? Around his 30's cause theres a guy who has one in north ranch. I see him driving around town alot. Those things sound so awsome.

Funny thing is that yesterday a similar thing happened to me. I was driving through an industrial park and saw a silver 911 coming the other way. Much to my surprise was the driving rolled down the window and gave me a thumbs up and a nod.

Hell, I got a compliment for an old dude just walking around in a parking lot. He had this lecherous grin and told me something like "It would be nice to have a young man with a nice car like that to drive me around." Yeah, this car is definitely a old-dude-magnet. I need to get a girlfriend if only to keep those old men off of me

yeah, I've been gettinga lot of this, too.

Yesterday night a an Ice Cream shack a little out of town a fella stops and starts asking about my 8. A friend of his bought one a few months ago. Apparently he traded a Viper in on it!

I took my 8 to display at a Show-n-Shine tonight. I ended up talking to many people about the 8's. Everyone loved the "Freestyle" doors and the whole car overall. It's definitely an attention-attracting car.

Since I am the only one in town with an 8 I get a lot of looks and wows as no one as ever seen one before. The other day at the gas station a guy on a Harley pulls up and says "awesome car dude, is that some new 2006 model car?". Cool not having a Mazda dealer within 100 miles of here, no one knows.
